The Palestinian Islamist Hamas group said on Sunday it was taking key steps to end a decade-old feud with PresidentMahmoud Abbas's Fatah movement.
Hamas has dissolved its shadow government in the Gaza Strip, the militant group said in a statement, adding it will allow a reconciliation government to operate there and is ready to hold elections and enter talks with Fatah.
Repeated attempts at reconciliation have failed since Hamas drove forces loyal to Abbas from the Gaza Strip in 2007, a year …

Palestinian National Authority

The Palestinian National Authority (PA or PNA; Arabic:السلطة الوطنية الفلسطينية‎as-Sulṭa al-Waṭanīya al-Filasṭīnīya) is the interim self-government body established to govern the Gaza Strip and Areas A and B of the West Bank, as a consequence of the 1993 Oslo Accords. Following elections in 2006 and the subsequent Gaza conflict between the Fatah and Hamas parties, its authority had extended only in areas A and B of the West Bank. Since January 2013, the Fatah-controlled Palestinian Authority uses the name "State of Palestine" on official documents.

The Palestinian Authority was formed in 1994, pursuant to the Oslo Accords between the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and the government of Israel, as a five-year interim body. Further negotiations were then meant to take place between the two parties regarding its final status. According to the Oslo Accords, the Palestinian Authority was designated to have exclusive control over both security-related and civilian issues in Palestinian urban areas (referred to as "Area A") and only civilian control over Palestinian rural areas ("Area B"). The remainder of the territories, including Israeli settlements, the Jordan Valley region and bypass roads between Palestinian communities, were to remain under Israeli control ("Area C"). East Jerusalem was excluded from the Accords. Negotiations with several Israeli governments had resulted in the Authority gaining further control of some areas, but control was then lost in some areas when the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) retook several strategic positions during the Second ("Al-Aqsa") Intifada. In 2005, after the Second Intifada, Israel withdrew unilaterally from its settlements in the Gaza Strip, thereby expanding Palestinian Authority control to the entire strip.

Palestinian

Palestinian is typically referring to a person belonging to the Palestinian people, an Arab nationalist group defined in the Palestinian National Charter of 1968, also referred to as Palestinians (Arabic:الفلسطينيون‎, al-Filasṭīniyyūn).

Authority

The word authority (derived from the Latin word auctoritas) can be used to mean the right to exercise power given by the State (in the form of government, judges, police officers, etc.), or by academic knowledge of an area (someone can be an authority on a subject).

In various settings

Government

In government, the term authority is often used interchangeably with power. However, their meanings differ: while power is defined as "the ability to influence somebody to do something that he/she would not have done", authority refers to a claim of legitimacy, the justification and right to exercise that power. For example, while a mob has the power to punish a criminal, for example by lynching, people who believe in the rule of law consider that only a court of law has the authority to punish a criminal legally as the law says.

Gaza Strip

The Gaza Strip (/ˈɡɑːzəˈstrɪp/;Arabic:قطاع غزة‎Qiṭāʿ Ġazzah[qɪˈtˤɑːʕ ˈɣazza]), or simply Gaza, is a
small self-governing Palestinian territory on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, that borders Egypt on the southwest for 11 kilometers (6.8mi) and Israel on the east and north along a 51km (32mi) border. Gaza, together with the West Bank, comprise the Palestinian territories claimed by the Palestinians as the future sovereign State of Palestine. The territories of Gaza and the West Bank are separated from each other by the territory of Israel. Both fall under the jurisdiction of the Palestinian Authority, but Gaza has since June 2007 been governed by Hamas, a Palestinian Islamic organization which came to power in free elections in 2006. It has been placed under an Israeli and U.S.-led international economic and political boycott from that time onwards.

The territory is 41 kilometers (25mi) long, and from 6 to 12 kilometers (3.7 to 7.5mi) wide, with a total area of 365 square kilometers (141sqmi). With around 1.85 million Palestinians on some 362 square kilometers, Gaza ranks as the 6th most densely populated polity in the world. An extensive Israeli buffer zone within the Strip renders much land off-limits to Gaza's Palestinians. Gaza has an annual population growth rate of 2.91% (2014 est.), the 13th highest in the world, and is often referred to as overcrowded. Due to the Israeli–Egyptian blockade, the population is not free to leave or enter the Gaza Strip, nor allowed to freely import or export goods. Sunni Muslims make up the predominant part of the Palestinian population in the Gaza Strip.

Gaza: Guerrilla To Government - Israel/Palestine

Aug 1997
We investigate the corruption discrediting the PLO.
Corruption within the Palestinian Authority is rife and Arafat hasn't fulfilled Palestinian expectations of the Peace Accords. Abu Hussein is a Palestinian hero: a resistance leader tortured by the Israelis, fed up with the Palestinian Authority. Security forces arrest him with our camera crew in the street. Former guerrilla commander General Sabawy admits enemies of Arafat's privileged clique often end up in prison. At a Gazan society wedding the groom is the son of a General close to Arafat, another exile returned to wield almost unquestioned power. His family have brought their Western dress and confidence from exile abroad. The poor suffer and millions of dollars of aid have been misspent. Dr Kronz investigated the lost funds. "This makes the people feel disappointed. This is not what we struggle for." Anonymously, a man describes how police tried to beat a confession from him. On the troubled path from revolution to democracy Gazans may have merely changed one system of oppression for another.

Ceremonial Reception of President of the Palestinian National Authority of the State of Palestine

Aug 1997
We investigate the corruption discrediting the PLO.
Corruption within the Palestinian Authority is rife and Arafat hasn't fulfilled Palestinian expectations of the Peace Accords. Abu Hussein is a Palestinian hero: a resistance leader tortured by the Israelis, fed up with the Palestinian Authority. Security forces arrest him with our camera crew in the street. Former guerrilla commander General Sabawy admits enemies of Arafat's privileged clique often end up in prison. At a Gazan society wedding the groom is the son of a General close to Arafat, another exile returned to wield almost unquestioned power. His family have brought their Western dress and confidence from exile abroad. The poor suffer and millions of dollars of aid have been misspent. Dr Kronz investigated the lost funds. "This makes the people feel disappointed. This is not what we struggle for." Anonymously, a man describes how police tried to beat a confession from him. On the troubled path from revolution to democracy Gazans may have merely changed one system of oppression for another.

Hamas 'ready' to work with Palestinian authority in Gaza

The Palestinian Islamist Hamas group said on Sunday it was taking key steps to end a decade-old feud with PresidentMahmoud Abbas's Fatah movement.
Hamas has dissolved its shadow government in the Gaza Strip, the militant group said in a statement, adding it will allow a reconciliation government to operate there and is ready to hold elections and enter talks with Fatah.

Gaza: Guerrilla To Government - Israel/Palestine

Aug 1997
We investigate the corruption discrediting the PLO.
Corruption within the Palestinian Authority is rife and Arafat hasn't fulfilled Palestinian expectations of the Peace Accords. Abu Hussein is a Palestinian hero: a resistance leader tortured by the Israelis, fed up with the Palestinian Authority. Security forces arrest him with our camera crew in the street. Former guerrilla commander General Sabawy admits enemies of Arafat's privileged clique often end up in prison. At a Gazan society wedding the groom is the son of a General close to Arafat, another exile returned to wield almost unquestioned power. His family have brought their Western dress and confidence from exile abroad. The poor suffer and millions of dollars of aid have been misspent. Dr Kronz investigated the lost funds. "This makes the people feel disappointed. This is not what we struggle for." Anonymously, a man describes how police tried to beat a confession from him. On the troubled path from revolution to democracy Gazans may have merely changed one system of oppression for another.
